This morning I have immersed myself in the words of poet Andrea Gibson. Last night I invited them and their partner Meg into my home and they entered my heart on a day I really needed love to be the center of my thoughts. This past weekend hatred and fear pushed its way into our reality. It is always there but sometimes we open the floodgates and it almost drowns us. Thinking of the death toll the three tragic events this weekend took I thought about the death tolls in the Ukraine and in Gaza which were many times greater but we are somehow indifferent to anything that the internet does not focus on. Each life counts! I watched the beautiful documentary titled Come See Me in a Better Light and was reminded of the gift that living is. I search for the right words and deliberately reject the words that echo nothing but hate , intolerance, stupidity and inhumanity.
The Right Words
